Perfect location though and easy access to city center of bath. Service was great and very helpful. No elevators, wifi, and dining area is closed, but the bar was open and it was fairly cheap.

The staff was friendly. The room was clean and spacious, with a 4 poster bed with lovely bedding, tea and coffee facilities, and there was a bathtub. Over all we had a nice time staying at Red car hotel.

Our stay at the Macdonald Bath Spa Hotel was really wonderful. The spa is fantastic! The staff are friendly and so attentive at all times.

The Drawing Room is a great place to relax by the large fireplace. It's so cosy. We treated ourselves to the afternoon tea, all cakes and scones are freshly made.
The hotel is only a 10/15 minute walk into town. It's a very nice walk and the town has the Thermae Spa which I would definitely recommend.
Overall a brilliant stay. I was sad to leave and hope to return again.

An enjoyable stay in a hotel with elegant features and in a delightful rural setting. Dining room staff were effective and food very well prepared and presented.

There were minor shortcomings: bar service was very slow (20 min); the patio linked to the bedroom needed weeding; housekeeping could have been better (after 2.00pm on second day, towel short and mud marks on floor not mopped); some bedroom furniture is a bit 'tired' (eg plinth of chest of drawers needed re-varnishing); for anyone with a mobility problem, the indoor pool is a long way from changing rooms and up a long stairway. We plan to use this hotel again and feel confident that we would have an anjoyable stay.

The stay in general was ok. However, there was a bad experience with the house-keeping lady! When I checked in the hotel, I went in the room and took a shower in the bath room.

Then, I heard some noise around the room door. Someone tried to open my room door! But I have used the door chain and so she could not completely get it opened. The house-keeping lady shouted that, "hey, there is no towel in the bath room"... I mentioned to her that I could not go out the bath room to talk to her at that moment and would contact her later on. However, she insisted to throw and drop the towel on the floor for me to pick up. I was surprised at this kind of service standard and really felt embarrassed on the whole experience. It's terrible and how can you expect someone will disturb you in this way when you are using the bath room. This should not happen in any of the hotel. I have made a serious complain to the hotel reception staff!

We got a good price on the room - I wouldn't have wanted to spend much more. The hotel was once a beautiful stately home but now feels shabby and down at heel.

The staff were friendly enough but there are clearly not enough of them. Many areas are left uncleaned or tidied - the table outside the bar still had plates piled up hours after they were used and the ladies toilet was filled with used towels, left on the side in a heap. There didn't appear to be anywhere to hang them. The shower itself was excellent but the floor in the cubicle was lethal and I slipped and badly bruised myself. An elderly resident could have had really serious injuries.

Bath can be a bit awkward as regards parking but its very user friendly for walking so Ayrlington House is perfect.

Off street parking with just a 10 minute walk to the heart of Bath. The room was spacious and comfortable, the bar was warm and inviting and the staff were terrific. Very helpful with maps and ideas. I'd stay again.

Had a lovely two night breakaway at this lovely hotel with my mother. We requested a ground floor room as my mother finds stairs very difficult.

I think it’s the only ground floor room (no.11 The Crossman Room) was satisfactory , clean with plenty of toiletries , shower caps,shoe shine ,soaps and slippers! Nice quiet dark room for a good nights sleep. Only drawback was that the sink was in bedroom and the (small)shower and toilet were in a separate room so my mother couldn’t manage the shower as it had a step up into it .So she was unable to wash in private unless I left the room. Breakfast was ample with plenty of choice . Staff very pleasant and helpful throughout .
Would stay again.
Great location.

Amazing location, the friendliest and most welcoming staff! They were very helpful! The stairs are tight, but that’s nothing to be upset about because you’re staying in an amazing place in an awesome location!! Super close to town, just a short 5 minute stroll!!

I needed to stay close to Royal Bath Hospital at short notice and I couldn't have chosen a better hotel.

It was a 10 minute walk away and the hotel itself was really nice, tastefully decorated in a modern but classic style. I was in room 10 and can honestly say I can't remember having a better shower! It was amazing! There was so much breakfast choice for a relatively small hotel and it was delicious. Staff were in touch with me a few days in advance to discuss my arrival plans, parking (free on the roadside) and how I could get into the hotel if reception was closed. Would definitely stay here again

Overall, we had a lovely stay in the hotel. The location is quite scenic as it has a great view of the hills and isolated which gives us the feeling of relaxed and chilled holiday.

Our room is very cozy, good and spacious bathroom. Free tea & coffee, bottled water in the fridge and there's even a blower/dryer already provided! There's a strong signal for the wi-fi (in some hotel, this can be an issue) The only one down side that we can think of, is there's no phone in the room, so you have to come down at the reception for any of your concerns or requests, though there's always a staff in the reception anyway and they're very friendly and accomodating...will definitely come back:-)

Traveling with our 12 & 15 year olds through London, Bath and beyond. We completely enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Villas at Henrietta Park.

The rooms are fresh and lovely, in modern grey and white tones with a wall of colorful wallpaper thrown in to each room. The windows open to pretty views, the park, trees and homes, all the way around. They had comfy beds with crisp white cotton sheets, nice televisions with the added bonus of Netflix available. We only used the restaurant for breakfast, which was tasty. It is the perfect walk into downtown Bath, 5-10 minutes max. We highly recommend.

the location was further out than i had expected from the map, but in fact the bus routes were so well served that the benefit of leaving the car there and whizzing in and out on public transport without the hazzle of city centre parking was brilliant.

a plus for the co2 conscious as well.
i stayed a second night & so experienced two different rooms and both were good. both were surprisingly quiet. i liked the black out blind as well as the venetian, to avoid bright sunshine early-dawn-awakening when you don't want it! would stay there again & hope to try the swimming pool one day if in bath for longer. pretty garden too.

Traveler impressions of Bath

Take the City Sightseeing tour (Bus) to see all the sights in a glance on Day 1. On the next day travel to the sights that interest you.

Roman Baths and the Royal Crescent is a must see of course.
We went in the Winter. But would be lovely to visit in the Summer.
If you are an Austen fan visit the Jane Austen center. And if you are a book lover/collector find the Bookshop on the street in front of the Bath Spa train station. The basement has an amazing collection of second hand books. (George Bayntun)
Great walks all around the city. Plan to stay for 3 or more days if you love walking.
- Bath City walk
- Sky Line walk (Prior park)
Heard that the Guildhall Market is great. But didn't get a chance to visit.
If you love historic buildings and beautiful walks, Bath city is one of the best places for a short break.

I am very glad that I came to see this very beautiful city. Would recommend this to everyone: Roman Bath Spa, Stonehenge, walking through the beautiful parks and city buildings.

Harris,Canada

Such a romantic and idyllic place! We even went on a cold season, but still enjoyed our time very much! Thermae Spa is such a delight! Will definitely come back in summer for more activities and sightseeing!

Lota,United Kingdom

It's a lovely place to walk around with a little bit of everything thrown in. Old, new, romance, nightlife, relaxation and everything in walking distance.

Should have researched it a bit more before we went so that we know where to go in the evenings rather than wandering around. :)

Bath is such a beautiful place and considering the number of tourist that visit Bath, Bath is kept very clean.

Bath is a small place and it is best to cover it on foot. Doing so will bring you to some very interesting sights like the Circus and the Royal Crescent.
The Bath Abbey and the Roman Baths are a must visit. The architecture is amazing. Good place to learn some history as well.

This city is absolutely massive romantic, you should stay there for honeymoon or that for pre-wedding shooting.

Sorasan,Thailand

So many historic attractions and definitely worth taking a river cruise to get the history of the areas trade / history.

Smith,United Kingdom

Bath is a city to visit at any time of the year for its unique character and buildings. It is a beautiful city with all the buildings made out of white Bath stone.

There are a lot of things to do, visit the Little Theatre for a very good cinema experience. Bath Spa for a taste of history and the mineral water. The shopping centre is excellent and unlike a lot of towns now in the UK Bath is thriving. There is a lot of street theatre, not just in the summer but year round. If you are keen on sport go to see the Rugby near the river.
A fun city with something for everyone.
